Define Components

You can use this tool to specify the project and define the individual components using the thermal insulation program.

Define Surfaces

You can use this tool to define the surfaces enveloping a building. You can assign components you have already defined as well as attributes, such as inclination or orientation, to these surfaces.

Calculate Thermal Insulation

You can use this tool to transfer all defined surfaces to the special software program for thermal insulation calculations.

Legend

You can use this tool to include the defined surfaces in a legend. Using the large number of legends provided, you can output the surfaces according to different criteria.

Label

You can use this tool to label envelope surfaces you have already defined. You can customize the label contents for your needs.

Thermal Insulation Reports

You can use this tool to include the defined surfaces in a report. Using the large number of reports provided, you can output the surfaces according to different criteria.

Function

Use

Modify Surfaces

You can use this tool to modify the attributes of envelope surfaces you have already defined.

Modify Orientation

You can use this tool to modify the orientation of one or several envelope surfaces in one go.

Update U-Value

You can use this tool to update the u-values of all the envelope surfaces in the active drawing files or in the NDW file. Allplan reads the u-values from the thermal insulation program and writes them to the existing envelope surfaces.

Reshape Surface Element, Architectural Area

You can use this tool to add areas to envelope surfaces or remove areas.

Split Surface Elements, Archit. Elements

You can use this tool to split envelope surfaces into two parts.

Merge Surface Elements, Archit. Elements

You can use this tool to merge two envelope surfaces to form one element. The merged element assumes the properties of the surface you click first.
